What to do if your baby gets red bumps after eating kiwi fruit

Kiwi fruit is a fruit that can easily cause allergies. After all, many people in our lives are prone to allergies. But it has to be said that kiwi fruit tastes very delicious, and its nutritional value is beyond the reach of many fruits. In life, not only adults can eat kiwis, but children can eat them too. So the question is, some babies have red bumps around the corners of their mouths after eating kiwi fruit, what's going on?

01Baby is allergic to certain fruits:

For example, kiwi and mango are common fruits that are prone to cause allergies. We all know that when babies have severe allergies, they will show very obvious systemic symptoms, such as eczema, diarrhea, etc.

But sometimes the baby's reaction is not that strong, so only a mild "local allergy" will occur, which is the red bumps around the lips that we often see.

02 Stimulation of certain acidic components in fruits:

This situation is not an allergy. It is just because the baby's skin is delicate, so under the stimulation of the acidic components of the fruit, red bumps appear on the delicate skin around the lips.

You may want to ask, how do we distinguish whether it is an allergy?

This requires careful observation, because if the baby is only stimulated by acidic ingredients, the red pimple symptoms will generally only appear around the lips, and will not expand, and the symptoms will disappear in a relatively short time.

In this case, there is no need to rush to see a doctor. Instead, you should wash the area around your baby's lips with clean water and dry it every time your baby eats these acidic fruits.

You cannot just wipe it with dry paper towels or dry towels, because the acidic substances will not be washed away, and dry wiping will further irritate the baby's delicate skin.

At the same time, washing with clean water is also a verification method, because if the baby's mouth and the surrounding area are clean, the symptoms will disappear, which proves from another aspect that the baby is not allergic.
